Chapter 1: I’ve Already Ascended into a Dragon… Girl?

“You guys really are… the most abstract class I’ve ever taught.”

As the homeroom teacher and PE teacher at Cassell Academy, Lumio was worried sick about her students.

As someone who had been through it herself, she understood that being lively and restless was just young people’s nature, but…

What was “I want to become a holy maiden of the holy nation, then devote myself to you for the sake of the gods” supposed to mean?

What was “I want to join the Royal Knights, fight the evil dragon until I’m exhausted, and then get captured” supposed to mean?

What was “I want to be a magical girl, and I even want my mom to brand a pink emblem on me” supposed to mean?

Not to mention whether this era even had a job called “magical girl.” That last student, at least try to hide your thoughts a little!

After listening to her students’ dreams, Lumio had only one thought.

Just let Cassell Academy go to hell already.

Lumio was a dragon.

More precisely, a defective dragon girl.

Even though she was missing a wing, that didn’t stop her from being the homeroom teacher and guiding her students toward good behavior.

But she knew she had to remember her grudges. None of these bad students who gave her high blood pressure were getting away!

Lumio planned to write every one of them down in her little notebook. She lowered her eyes and opened the attendance roster.

Hmm… the names were too long. Forget it, she wouldn’t write them.

“Next… Antima.”

Ignoring the student’s overly long surname out of habit, Lumio looked up to find her target below the podium.

She really couldn’t remember her students’ full names, but she could remember their faces.

After all, they were all very cute girls.

That’s right, her class only had girls.

But they were all problem children.

Even though each of them had excellent talents, pretty faces, and completed their schoolwork well, why were their dreams so bizarre?

Still, with her Lumio on the case, she could definitely get these students back on track.

Come on, girls, speak your dreams out loud.

There’s no way everyone’s dream was weird, right?

Under Lumio’s gentle gaze, a girl with long, straight black hair and a cold, elegant face stood up. She wore a black JK uniform and sheer black tights.

“Revenge.”

“Huh?” Lumio was caught off guard.

‘I came to the academy for only one purpose: to take revenge on that woman.’

Ignoring Lumio’s frozen expression, Antima drew her blade and pointed it at Lumio, who stood at the podium.

“I came to the academy to seek power. If your class is just a boring game of make-believe, I’ll excuse myself.”

” Teacher, I’m not playing make-believe, you know.”

Facing Antima’s blade, Lumio’s golden pupils narrowed into slits, revealing her draconic majesty.

But inside, she was slightly panicked.

‘It was because she didn’t know how to answer that she instinctively showed her dragon eyes.’

‘Hmm… I just wanted to pick a student who looked normal to answer, but the first thing they say is such a heavy topic.’

‘Shouldn’t humans this age be full of youth and romance?’

‘And besides…’

“Class is no place for drawing swords. Please put the blade away, okay?”

Lumio stepped forward.

“!”

‘So fast!’

Watching Lumio appear before her in the blink of an eye and press the tip of the blade with a single finger, Antima instinctively tried to swing, but the force on the edge made her arm tremble slightly.

‘The teacher before her… is definitely not the kind of defective dragonkin the academy rumors talk about.’

‘Still, this is fine.’

“Yes, Teacher.”

Antima sheathed her sword and sat back down with a calm expression.

She had come to the academy to gain power. As long as the teacher was stronger than her, it didn’t matter who it was.

As long as she could take revenge on her sister…

“Good. Don’t do that next time, okay?”

Seeing Antima so obedient, Lumio also breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew her aura.

‘Was the dragon’s majesty really that useful?’

‘Honestly, if the other party still wouldn’t listen, she would have been out of options.’

The head of this academy, the witch who had hired her as a teacher, had said:

“Get along well with the students. No force, no abilities, and magic is also a no-no.”

“Lumio, you’re a mature dragon girl now. You don’t want to miss your salary and leave your little sister at home unable to eat, right?”

“If a student has problems in their head, use love to reform them.”

She felt fists would be better. But putting her fists in attack position was just wishful thinking. She wouldn’t lay a hand on her own students, even problem ones.

Using only violence would make her no better than an incompetent teacher who only knew corporal punishment.

And her salary would vanish right along with her teacher’s virtue!

But…

Seeing the chattering girls in the classroom fall silent, Lumio’s eyes lit up.

If magic, martial arts, and abilities were all violent means, then pure presence wasn’t, right!

If she couldn’t teach the students properly, even without making mistakes, her salary would run away from home.

Yes.

Lumio was absolutely certain that if she didn’t get these students back on track, that unscrupulous witch would never pay her.

She might even step on her and say something absurd like, “Kiss the back of my foot and I’ll give you your salary.”

Ridiculous. A real man stands between heaven and earth; how could he mope under another’s heel?

An empty wallet was something Lumio never wanted to experience a second time.

Then there was only one answer!

She would conquer these problem students with dignity, dominate their minds, and correct all their wrong dreams!

Kuhuhu. The future where she lost her salary by using force was gone. She had grasped the principle of victory!

“Um… what is the teacher’s dream?”

Back at the podium, Lumio tilted her head and smiled at the girl who had asked.

“Why do you want to know?”

“Because… you’re beautiful, teacher.”

“Mm-hm.”

Lumio felt that her dignity was working. It was the first time she had ever received a compliment from a student.

As long as she kept showing her authority, everything would be fine.

“Of course, it’s to evolve into a dragon.”

Lumio wanted to become a true dragon.

Not this dragon-girl form that was a bit dignified and kind of cute, but a colossal dragon whose wings could blot out the sun.

“Now that you know the teacher’s dream, Wamu, what is your dream?”

Lumio paused, and her smile grew even more sincere.

According to the other teachers, Wamu was the most normal student in the class. She could hardly wait to hear a normal dream.

“I… I only want to tell you, teacher…”

The slightly shy girl lowered her head a little.

“It’s okay. Teacher will listen anytime.”

With a cheerful mood, Lumio finished her first lesson of the day.

As the other students left, only Lumio and Wamu remained in the classroom.

“Wamu~” Lumio had plenty of patience for good children. “Don’t be shy. Whatever your dream is, teacher will help you make it come true.”

“R-really?” The obedient girl slowly raised her head. “Um… I like you, teacher. I want to fall in love with you. Is that okay?”

“…Huh?”

The smile Lumio had been maintaining on her face finally cracked.

Oh no! My teaching license!

Cassell Academy can just go to f*ck.
